Lately I've been watching my life
Play like it's a movie
And I'm feeling kind of lonely
But I've been burned before

And so I've earned this thoughtful type
I wish I were so strong and right
But sometimes I just think that I'm afraid

I'm waiting for a sign
Waiting for the right time
Wonderin' if I've somehow wasted all this time
Waiting for a sign

How have all these centuries
Of people grabbed their destinies
It seems that everybody else
Is so much better than I am
At taking hold of things that matter
Dealing what happends after

But me,
I'm keeping guard
So safe and sound

Just waiting for a sign
Always watching for the right time
Hoping that I haven't wasted too much time
Waiting for a sign

Waiting for a sign
Waiting for the right time
Hoping that I haven't wasted too much time
Waiting for a sign
